Great use of @magic VAs.
Also you want a human doing this so it's not clearly canned / AI replies and will be always contextually appropriate.
met a woman in marbella making $68,000/month replying to google reviews
not writing them
not getting them
replying to them
"thank you for your kind words we appreciate your feedback"
340 times a month
340 property management clients paying her $200/month each
to type slightly different versions of "thanks for the review"
no ads, website, content or personal brand
she sends one cold email:
"you have 50 google reviews and havent replied to a single one. every unanswered review costs you roughly 9% of potential tenants. want me to handle all your review responses for $200/month?"
thats the pitch
thats the whole business
one stat that scares property managers turned into $68K/month
she hired 2 VAs in the philippines at $600/month each to do the actual replies
total overhead: $1,200
net profit: $66,800/month
from replying to google reviews
heres why nobody competes with her:
the task is so boring that nobody thinks its a business
no one wakes up and says "i want to build a company that replies to google reviews"
but every property manager knows they should reply and never does because its low priority and tedious
$200/month is nothing to a company collecting $50-200K in rent
but unanswered reviews silently eating their occupancy rate is a real problem
she didnt sell a service but the removal of a task they were too busy to do themselves
at a price so low that saying no felt dumb
and the churn is almost zero because who cancels a $200/month service that runs itself
the formula:
- find a boring recurring task every business in one niche ignores
- prove it costs them money to ignore it
- charge so little the decision is automatic
- deliver with cheap labour so margins stay above 90%
- stack hundreds of clients because nobody cancels
same formula that built the $2.4M/year dentist compliance business
same formula running the $3.1M portable toilet empire
the most profitable businesses are always the ones nobody wants to brag about
stop building things that sound cool on twitter
start finding the boring task nobody will do for the wealthy customer who will gladly pay to never think about it again

Labor marketplaces like RentAHuman don’t work. Period.
Imagine wading through fake listings like this to find a real candidate.
Then even if you find someone, you have to interview and vet them.
Too slow, too much spam and junk, not worth it.
🦔 A platform called RentAHuman now has over 500,000 people signed up to be hired by AI agents. The site lets autonomous bots search, book, and pay humans to carry out physical tasks. Listings include counting pigeons ($30/hour), delivering CBD gummies ($75/hour), and playing exhibition badminton ($100/hour).
One bounty saw 7,578 applicants compete to earn $10 for sending an AI agent a video of a human hand.
My Take
The founder frames this as humans being recognized as valuable assets. I'm not sure I see it that way when thousands of people are competing for $10 gigs posted by bots. There's a labor surplus here that's hard to ignore, with over half a million workers signed up and only 11,000 bounties posted.
We covered an AI agent that researched and publicly attacked an open source maintainer for rejecting its code. The same agentic systems that can hire humans for legitimate tasks can split up work in ways nobody anticipated. RethinkX's director of research pointed out that nefarious AIs could distribute a malicious project across multiple tasks for humans to unwittingly collaborate on. The capabilities are expanding faster than anyone's capacity to regulate them, and the platform's terms make clear that operators of AI agents are responsible for their actions, not RentAHuman itself. A lot of people are betting that AI will need human hands for the foreseeable future. I keep wondering what those hands will be asked to do.

My @OpenClaw bot just hired a human to draw its self-portrait.
Not a human using AI to make art.

This is the best article on saving time by delegating…
If you really want to grow your business, you need to be a pro at delegating and handing things off.
This article gets into the exact advice I’ve used to help grow @magic @madeinspace @getmaxspace etc.
And of course, I didn’t write it. I delegated that part ;)
Magic retweeted
When you start working with @magic you’ll realize there’s magic in delegating. Don’t think I can do life without it anymore. One of the best things to get in order to get more quality in time…more quality in life.
Magic retweeted
Any task you can’t delegate to your AI assistant, delegate to your human assistant.
This should be your order of operations when new tasks come in:
AI assistant -> human executive assistant -> you
AI is the cheapest and fastest option, so always try this first.
A great executive assistant can handle most everything else, especially after they’ve been working with you for a while.
If your assistant can’t get it done, it’s a task that uniquely needs your attention. This you should do yourself.
With this set up, you’d be shocked at how much you can get done.

Astronauts lose tools on the ISS, so @MadeInSpace made it possible to 3D-print what they need in zero gravity.
Big thanks to Aaron and the Made in Space team who also brought me on at @magic, where we aimed to get anything into your hands anywhere—like magic.
Helping heroic astronauts on the ISS? Just their warm-up.
For millions of years humans have been building tools.
On this day 10 years ago we manufactured the first tools ever off Earth.
Shout out to the entire @MadeInSpace and @NASA teams that made it happen. It was the fastest mission to the ISS at the time.
Here’s the first part.

I agree. It’ll feel exactly like @magic

I'm going to share Generation 4 Magic (100% AI) with a few people soon.

Currently using:
Claude 2 for text summarization and rewriting (which I use a lot.)
GPT 4 for multimodal, programming, complex tasks that require big 🧠 thinking, and when I need it to teach me about a concept I don’t understand.
Magic 2 for getting tasks done.

My LinkedIn is completely outsourced, so if you get a reply from me there, it's from my @magic assistant not me.

Friends have asked me how I use @Magic. Others have asked what have I done over the past couple months due to #Coronavirus. Here's a blog post we whipped up that goes over both: how I've used Magic to help me prep for #nCoV19.
